About the course:

Liquidity is a focus area for banks around the globe, in the Americas,
and particularly on the leading edge in the United States. Banks are all
heavily investing in advanced technology and infrastructure to manage liquidity
in response to the Basel III, the upcoming Basel IV, and evolving country
supervisor capital adequacy guidelines and rules like those of Dodd-Frank
CCAR/DFAST. Banks face universal and country specific challenges arising from
the implementation of these new regulations under multiple macroeconomic
scenarios while supporting proper balance sheet, capital, and coverage ratios
levels under normal and stressed conditions. A Bankís modern liquidity
management framework must encompass advanced modelling methods and techniques
that are now critical for the optimization of decisions and processes that
account for the full availability of data while considering the rules, product
mixes, haircuts and underlying business performance and profitability models.

Banks want to effectively manage their liquidity needs and risks while
continuously improving and balancing the integration of their immediate
funding, contingency, and resolution plans. At the same time, Banks must carve
out competitive advantage by aggressively managing the optimization of current
and evolving ratios including the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR), net stable
funds ratio (NSFR), total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) ratio, and long-term
debt (LTD) ratio. With increase size and complexity of holding companies (BHC
and IHC), banks now need to include views and consideration of multifaceted
effects on liquidity and credit of qualified financial contracts (QFC) and
cross-default problems.
